I love having Sasha on the Lakers but he flops way too much.

He was holding his shoulder after getting up. Should a hit like on the shoulder knock him down for the count? too much acting

not conclusive but he seems to extend the elbow right into V's chest/neck

Bowen is a dirty player!
He's clean but tough!
There's a pattern!
A pattern of tough defense!
BLAH BLAH BLAH

There's the topic, save yourselves the trouble.

Apparently Flea, who was sitting right in front of the play, said Bowen clocked him with an elbow.

People have to see it from a different perspective.

I bet plays like that happen 5 times every game, but everyone makes a big deal out whenever Bowen is involved.

From that angle it looks like Bowen extended his elbow but we probably won't know how bad it was because of the 'getting shot' reaction from Sasha.

Flea would say that. He's a bigger homer than Chuck Swirsky.

Good no-call.

Sasha needs to stop being such a wuss.

Wow I just watched the replay for the 1st time. That was definitely a cheap shot lol. He knows just went to do it. The ref straight in front of him was blocked from view by Luke Walton. And the one from behind and to his right couldn't see it because he used his left arm. That's where the "art" in cheap shot artist comes from. The Machine is not phased by elbows though, he's out there throwing daggers.

even if he did catch him with an elbow there should be zero repercussions because sasha gets up with tears streaming down his face haha

Duh. Besides, its a blessing to have a guy that can actually frustrate Manu Ginobli on our team. That's going to be HUGE in the coming games.

Ref wouldn't have saw that anyway because it was on the weak side. Thats why "El-Bowen" did it.

Sasha looked like he was about to cry/become tearfully enraged in that clip. I wouldn't have been surprised if he clocked Bowen on the next play down.
